I am looking for an extended AR pistol tube, as the normal tubes a little short for me. I have googled but found nothing. Does such a tube exist like maybe 9 inches or 10 inches?

use a carbine or rifle tube. Just make it so you can't attach a stock, like with tape or paracord.

KAK makes an Extended or Super tube (this shows the variants with a cheek-rest saddle installed).  You can buy them from Thorsden Customs if you want the cheek rest kit too.

Part in red not a legal requirement.

Carbine tube is same length as most standard "pistol" tubes.

I know of nothing longer than the two KAK "super tubes" (apprx. 8.5" past end plate), which are just a bit short of a milspec rifle tube, which will require one of the two alternate methods of securing the takedown detente/spring.

Yep, A5 tube, be sure to use an A5 buffer and action spring. This is the best buffer system available, other than a full rifle buffer system. Gives best reliability and recoil control.

It's only about about .7" longer than standard carbine tube, still significantly shorter than KAK super tube.
